CANADA - Manitobans who typically wouldn't have the opportunity to see agriculture first hand are being invited to take in the special events planned as part of Open Farm Day this Sunday, Bruce Cochrane reports.

Open Farm Day, set for Sunday, 17 September, is an annual observance where farms across the province open their doors to allow visitors, typically from urban centres who don't have the opportunity to visit a farm, to learn more about how their food is produced.

Myrna Grahn, the Manager of the Bruce D. Campbell Farm and Food Discovery Centre, says special events at the centre will run from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
